When Social Security was set up in 1935 the life expectancy of a man born in 1935 was 60; a woman’s was 64. The system was never designed to help retirees, it was just another scheme to collect taxes—and it has backfired bigly and I for one am glad of it.
Let’s talk about the decrease in life expectancy now ?? Post covid vaccines.
Me too.
My Grandmother managed to retire at the age of 62, and lived to be 93. I bet the govt. wasn’t planning on people living as long as she did.
